C Incorrect. The community health nurse may assess the community for toxins which contaminate groundwater, but radon is not a groundwater contaminate derived from petroleum.
D Correct. The community health nurse assesses the community for environmental toxins including radon which is a radioactive gas caused by decaying uranium.

Answer to Question 2

Autistic children may not wish to interact with other children. These children rely on routine and order for security. The nurse should try to maintain the normal routine as much as possible. The child may be comforted by the repetitive movement. Language delays are a common occurrence in autistic children.

Every flu season is different, and even healthy people can get extremely sick from the flu, as well as spread it to others. The flu season can begin as early as October and last as late as May. Every person over six months of age should get an annual flu vaccine. The vaccine cannot cause you to get influenza, but in some seasons, may not be completely able to prevent you from acquiring influenza due to changes in causative viruses. The viruses in the flu shot are killed—there is no way they can give you the flu. Minor side effects include soreness, redness, or swelling where the shot was given. It is possible to develop a slight fever, and body aches, but these are simply signs that the body is responding to the vaccine and making itself ready to fight off the influenza virus should you come in contact with it.
